What is an Inflatable Bed

by: inflatableschinee   Category: inflatable   Keywords: inflatable, bed, airbeds

An inflatable bed is a portable air mattress that either comes with a built-in air compressor or requires an external compressor to be separately. The compressor fills and empties the bed in mere seconds with a press of a button. Firmness is adjustable by increasing or decreasing the volume of air. These comfortable, affordable and portable beds are great for company, sleepovers or for tent camping, and are easily stored when deflated.

 

Inflatable beds are available in many sizes to fit every need. Categories include child airbeds, twin beds, full beds and queen beds. A child-sized inflatable bed is shorter and narrower than a twin is, with an "air bumper" surrounding an inset mattress to keep a restless child from rolling out. Some childbeds rated to support up to 200 pounds, allowing for a little rough housing and bouncing.

A twin-sized inflatable bed accommodates a single adult perfectly when room and storage is paramount. A twin airbed might be kept on hand for emergencies or unexpected situations that call for a friend or family member to spend the night. Offering an inflatable bed can make the party feel more welcomed and you can put the air mattress in a private location, such as an out-of-the-way den or office. Twin airbeds are also ideal for tent camping, sleeping in the shell of a truck, or even in the back of a sports utility vehicle.

If a family member or friend stays more often, a full-sized airbed is larger than a twin bed, but smaller than a queen is. This bed will afford a little more freedom than a twin will.

Queen-sized airbeds are great for couples, and some models come with a double air mattress that resembles the standard "box spring" under the main mattress. These mattresses are a little more elegant and can be warmer because the top mattress is not lying on the floor. Some queen models come with a frame to raise the bed entirely off the floor.

You can dress up an inflatable bed with standard sheets, pillows, blankets and comforters to make guests feel at home. Twin sheets will work on child-sized airbeds with a little tucking.

As with other products, quality counts and so does convenience. A quality inflatable bed will not lose air over short stretches of time, such as a few days or even a few weeks; and beds with a built-in compressor eliminate the need for an external air pump, making the bed that much more convenient.

It can be enlightening to read reviews from people who have purchased airbeds to get an idea of the models that win the most praise. Many online vendors allow customers to leave feedback so this information is readily available. Prices range from under $100 US Dollars to over $200, depending on size, quality and features.

What is an Inflatable Mattress

An inflatable mattress is also an airbed or inflatable bed. Inflatable beds usually inflate with a hand held hair dryer or air pump. They are for houseguests or for camping. Inflatable mattresses are usually lower to the floor than regular beds. Inflatable mattresses are available in children's sizes all the way up to queen-sized.

 

Queen-sized inflatable beds are ideal for a couple and may work well as a guest bed. Many people do not have a queen-sized bed in their guest room, den or basement so it can be handy to have an inflatable mattress stored in a closet to use for extra sleeping space during the holidays or vacations. If space is more limited, the next option in airbeds is the double or full size, which can still be for a couple in most cases.

Deluxe styles of inflatable mattresses may feature a backrest. Others include a switch to increase or decrease the air fill. The twin-sized inflatable mattress is t to fit one adult or older child. Smaller inflatable beds for children and inflatable cribs for babies are also available today. These can be especially convenient for travel.

Accessories for inflatable mattresses include inflatable pillows, air pumps and mattress covers. Mattress covers are often desirable as they can be for washing. They also add extra warmth and padding, especially on inflatable beds that do not have a flocked topping. A flocked topping is a soft layer of a velvet-textured material added to the inflatable mattress. This flocked covering may help eliminate the heat and discomfort associated with sleeping on vinyl or plastic mattresses. Many air mattresses also feature tunnel-like sections that fill with air to create extra comfort and support.

An inflatable mattress can make camping much more comfortable. Inflatable beds do not take up much room when deflated so are usually quite easy to take along with other camping gear. In addition, a sleeping bag can go right on top of the inflatable mattress so there is no need to fuss with making the airbed up with sheets in the tent, camper or cabin. Quality inflatable mattresses may cost up to about $150 or $200 U.S. dollars (USD), depending on the features and size. Inflatable Mattress!
